Freelance Video Editors work across this diverse entertainment ecosystem — producing promotional clips for SonyLIV originals like Scam 1992 and Maharani, broadcast promos for Sony TV serials, film marketing trailers for Sony Pictures releases, and music video promotional content for Sony Music India artists. The breadth of Sony India's entertainment properties makes this one of the most varied and high-output freelance video editing environments in India's media sector.

Key Responsibilities

• Produce Sony Entertainment Television broadcast promos — upcoming episode teasers, weekend schedule promotional clips, and show launch campaigns
• Edit Sony Pictures India film marketing trailers and social media promotional clips for theatrical releases
• Create Sony Music India artist promotional content — music video snippets, artist feature clips, and new release promotional reels
• Build motion graphic brand elements for Sony India's multiple channel identities and OTT platform branding
• Edit multi-language content variants — dubbing-integrated promos for Tamil, Telugu, Malayalam, and Kannada audiences

Requirements & Skills

• Degree or diploma in Film Editing, Mass Communication, or Media Production — 2024/2025 batch
• Adobe Premiere Pro and After Effects proficiency
• Knowledge of Indian television, OTT, and film entertainment landscape
• Broadcast promo editing skills — fast-paced edit style for television programming promotional content
• Understanding of multi-language entertainment content for India's diverse regional audiences
• Portfolio demonstrating entertainment, broadcast, or film marketing editing

• Potential for expanded scope across Sony Music and Sony Pictures content

Who Should Apply

A fresh film editing graduate with deep knowledge of Indian entertainment — television serials, web series, Bollywood cinema, and music — and an instinctive ability to cut engaging promotional content from raw entertainment footage. You find broadcast promo editing and OTT trailer craft equally interesting, and want to build a portfolio across multiple entertainment platforms simultaneously.
